The Cursed Child

CHAPTER :- 4

"The lift came on the ground floor and I climbed onto the same you went to. How come you got stuck?"

"I don't know! I can't understand what's happening?"

"Just Forget it! It's just your imagination."

"Every single second, the scene is playing in my mind. How can I forget it?"

"Try to forget it. It's just you are thinking too much. Don't care about it. It will be alright after sometime."

Bella said it was right but I knew that it wasn't my imagination. It was all literally real.

Bella went to sleep with a strange look on her face. I opened my laptop to study but found a message instead.

Dear Lily,
Telling others what happened, won't change anything. Neither what's happening in the present nor what you did in the past.

With that my heart forgot to beat. I checked who was it and how did it knew about the secret of mine.

As I noticed, it was sent by someone
@24October2017. It was strange that someone named this as their email-id but the thing more strange was that this was the same date on which that incident occurred.

I took some pills to forget about it which was not possible.
In the middle of the night, I heard some footsteps passing by me. I went without fear cause I thought it was Bella but it wasn't.

Only the broken plates on the floor and the loud pounding of my heart. I felt a person pass by me but when I turned back to see, there was nothing just some muddy traces of someone's feet leading me to Bella's room.

Soon as I found out about this, I rushed there cause I knew the reason why. I just found a handkerchief filled with blood and a sharp knife near Bella. I removed it from there.

I knew that sleeping today wasn't possible but still by sticking with Bella, I managed to do that so.

I got woken up by the screaming voice of Bella. I checked the time and it was freaking 8:30 am. I needed to reach my college on the first day at 9:30 am.

I went downstairs in a hurry and suddenly fell cause I was wearing socks while running on the stairs with one leg. Bella held me and started inquiring with me.

"Did I sleepwalk again?" She short asked me.

"I don't know, maybe you did. When I woke up to drink water, I saw it then I checked on you but you were sleeping on your bed." I lied while swallowing the truth.

"Maybe we should use plastic plates now?" She asked while laughing like a Baby.

"Sounds like a good idea." I said with a fake weird smile on my face.

I booked an Uber cab and it showed that it will soon arrive at my location and when it came then I went into the cab. Soon I reached the college but.

It was the same place where that night, the incident occurred. The same place at which I was standing. The old past made me regret my existence again.

I took a breath and managed to be strong enough, at least on the face but my weak heart knew my pain. I stepped forward with confidence but my  body hesitated.

I tried to forget everything and focus on the college right now. Maybe the fun here will give me some happiness for again . The happiness which I lost that night.

I looked through the people passing by me. Gosh! They were  looking so stylish, I realised that I was too less dressed up. I was literally wearing, a plain t-shirt and a skirt.
